Ronald Lauder, the son of Estée Lauder, uses the fortune he was born into to fund the very authoritarianism that destroyed Europe years ago. He is the architect of the Greenland scheme and the lithium deals in Ukraine.

As a British Columbian/Canadian, I can’t tell you how much I despise Alberta politics. They are actively trying to destroy our country. I feel sorry for all the good hard working people of the province.
Alberta is “the first province to legislate two‑tier health care and private health insurance for medically necessary services,” warning it could mark “the end of Canadian medicare as we know it” if other provinces follow. @alonghurst.bsky.social @reecca.bsky.social www.hcamag.com/ca/specializ...
Alberta’s ‘two‑tier health‑care law’ should concern employers: report
Move could have implications for future benefit design, regional disparities in access to care and long‑term workforce health costs

Canada’s auto industry is facing huge pressures, leaving workers and businesses in a state of uncertainty. So we’re taking control — and launching a new strategy that will transform the industry to be a global leader in electric vehicles.

I am rewatching Law and Order, and for anyone shocked by what is happening in the US and wondering how did you get here, you shouldn’t be. The exact same stories were being told 20 years ago.

When are the citizens from the US going to get it, the only way to get your country back is it to SHUT IT DOWN! The only thing the GOP and its supporters care about, other than power, is money. So hit them in the pocket book. Shut down ports, airports, banks, highways. Hit them where it hurts.

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.
There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.
This is my favorite guide.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
